Finally installed my rear sway bar. Going from no rear bar to a rear bar made the car feel so much better. Corners significantly flatter, and the car turns in a lot faster. I was able to make my FWD failboat move through corners decently well before (basically ended up teaching myself trail braking), but it takes so much less work now to go around corners as fast or faster.

Really interested in getting a bigger rear bar now (current bar is only 15mm, but better than 0mm).

Also finally attached some more pieces of trim that have been off the car since it was painted. Trying to actually get the pile of parts that is in my garage installed on my car. Next are rear upper and lower suspension braces, new set of mud guards (including semi-rare rear ones), and eibach sportline lowering springs.

After all of that, some asshole doored my car in the parking lot while I was standing right next to it. There were about 8 places they could have parked that were not super close to my car. Was not amused.

Late post since this was yesterday, but the engine bay is stripped, heads are off and I’m in the middle of flycutting pistons. I have so many battle wounds from the razor sharp cylinder heads. I hate Camaros.

Just H&R sport springs. That’s what I usually put on all my cars.

I have been considering the H&R coilovers for my Tsx. Looks good man. How much stiffer than stock do they seem? 12k/6k spring rates or something right?

Looks good man. Glad to see it’s all taken car of.

Took out the bad motor mounts that were on the bottom end I just installed. What a pain in the dick that was. Also took all of my wheels and left the car on jackstands. Looking to get these tires mounted asap lol

Parked my wife’s car next to it. Wondered why I still can’t find where the diesel is leaking from my engine. Considered lighting it on fire, realized flames might melt part of my bike parked on far side. Walked away.
